New York ? A bouncer accused of gunning down a man outside a trendy lounge was charged Friday with murdering one of the club’s other security workers and two other men in separate incidents.

Authorities said Stephen Sakai, 30, made incriminating statements about the three 2005 killings in Brooklyn after he was arrested in the deadly gunfire outside Opus 22 in Manhattan in May.

He pleaded not guilty to three counts of second-degree murder, two days after pleading not guilty in the Manhattan case, and was ordered held without bail.

According to papers filed by Manhattan prosecutors, Sakai fatally shot Opus 22 bouncer Edwin Mojica, 41, in December in what Sakai described as a dispute over money.

Sakai was also accused of stabbing a 56-year-old man to death during a dispute in September and with the November slaying of a strip club bouncer, 42-year-old Irving Matos, who was watching television in his basement apartment.
